Manual Handling and Risk Assessment

When was the last time you felt back pain, an aching neck or arms, having lifted boxes around your workplace?

Whether your team members are handling boxes, completing an office move, helping colleagues move furniture, or any of the many other tasks we carry out every day, we all need a little help to assess and reduce the risks involved. Learn HQ in association with AT&F Solutions help you ensure we don’t strain our most valuable asset: our staff.

In Manual Handling we look at:

  • Common injuries caused by poor handling.
  • Which parts of the body are more vulnerable.
  • Musculoskeletal Disorders.
  • Upper Limb Disorders.
  • The effects of The Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992 (as amended 2002).
  • Steps to take to assess the risk.
  • Four factors that affect risks.
  • Special training/task specific training.
  • How health problems and medical conditions impact our ability to handle and lift items.
  • Whether protective clothing may be necessary for certain tasks, and the impact of using such whilst completing the task, and many more topics...

Manual Handling and Risk Assessment is a comprehensive online training module guiding all staff as to both the correct and incorrect ways to handle items, useful techniques for general day to day lifting. At the end of the course each trainee has the option to complete a self risk assessment.

The course combines both multiple choice questions and ‘real life’ role-playing scenarios (“missions”) to encourage each student to think about manual handling in the context of their own environment.

Often we just need a refresher, although this course will equally suit an induction programme. Manual Handling and Risk Assessment offers you and your staff an easy way to protect ourselves at work.
